Jektefartsmuseet
Description
The museum contains one of the last surviving wooden Jeks boats that used to ferry stockfish from the northern ports down to Bergen and flour and grain back north up until the beginning of the 20th century. The museum tells the story of the trade and the ships, navigating over 500 miles down to Bergen purely on the skill of the skippers.
